Yep off early for Christmas so I coasted by Pitbull for some spools and check out the new trailer mounts....
They are so COOL! I will have to think on it a bit since I want to keep my etrack. But if you were going from scratch this is a great setup. They had some video of using them and it is very simple. Not at all what I pictured. You put the axle mount on while on your stand/kickstand then drive it in and it locks Typical Pitbull in that it is very well made. I am going to check my etrack setup to see if I can make an adapter then .......

If everything tastes like chicken..... what does chicken taste like
Check the link Of course I do not have the video as it was just shown to me and is not on the website yet. The biggest issue I will have is the plate attaches at both ends while etrack would be in the center so I need to adapt a bit. I already have some ideas ...

I had seen advertisements for those, but not the video. Looks great, but they are pretty pricey. Still, it would be nice to not have to fuss with straps.
There was no front wheel chock in the picture, it doesn't require the use of a front chock?
Those of you with other strapless transport systems...is the rear wheel on the ground like the PitBull unit? How easy is it to get the other ones in place? Do you have to lift the bike up?

No, the wheel is raised a few inches off the ground. You have to roll the bike back and upwards into the stand. ST stands work well, but I probably would've bought the Pit-Bulls if they were available at the time.
For the Pitbull the wheel is on the ground and in front of the plate. I am probably going to get a spare plate and try to fit it for etrack before buying the whole thing. The etrack fit would not be to hard except it needs to be on the ends to avoid a torque on the center (much more stress on the etrack mount) It will change my scheme but for when I am only hauling the RC it would be perfect (got to test other setups)
